    That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee
    Meeting dated 15 January 2018 regarding Application No. MCU16/0144 for a Development
    Application for Material Change of Use of Premises - Retail Business Type 2 – Shop and
    Salon situated at 1 Kingsgate Drive, Tinbeerwah and defer the decision until the Ordinary
    Meeting of 18 January 2018 so that a further report can be brought to Council considering
    whether the existing building has the necessary building approvals.
    A.   Approve the application in accordance with the conditions contained in the General
         Committee Agenda dated 15 January 2018.
    B.   Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with
         the Planning Scheme:
         1.     The site has approval for a business use (general store) for over 2 decades and
                The Noosa Plan specifically identifies the subject site for use as Retail Business
                type 1 Local (General Store) which permits the sale of prepared food and dining
                facilities for up to 10 people.
         1.     The proposal is small scale and potential amenity impacts are able to be
                appropriately mitigated for nearby residents.
         1.     The proposed use predominantly serves a local function and affords the
                Tinbeerwah community a local venue, providing an alternative to travelling to
                nearby local centres.
    C.   Advise the applicant that they must immediately reduce the number of dining facilities
         on site to no more than 10 seats, pursuant to the Noosa Plan’s definition of Retail
         Business Type 2 Shop & Salon.
                                                                                           Carried.
